Paris + David Jenkins
Overview • Silicon photomultipliers • Reminder of what they are and how they work • Testing carried out at York • Concept for neutron detector readout • Veto box • What it is • How it could be used for 2n/3n studies • PARIS • Overview • Present status • Possible synergies with NEDA
Silicon photomultipliers • Direct replacement for photomultiplier tube • Insensitive to magnetic fields • Can operate in vacuum • Large sizes possible • Attractive for simultaneous PET and MRI scanning • Gain stabilisation as function of temperature must be achieved • Dark current is very high
SiPM array tested at York – independent read-out of each of 16 segments
Goal of the PARIS Collaboration: Design and build high efficiency detector consisting of two shells for medium resolution spectroscopy and calorimetry of g-rays in large energy range Inner(hemi-)sphere, highly granular, will be made of new crystals (LaBr3(Ce), LaCl3, CeZnTe), rather short (up to 5 cm). The readout might be performed with APDs or with digital electronics which would offer the possibility of pulse shape analysis. The inner-sphere will be used as a multiplicity filter of high resolution, sum-energy detector (calorimeter), detector for the gamma-transition up 10 MeV with relatively good resolution (better than 3%), and as an absorber for the large detectors behind. It will serve also for fast timing application. Outer (hemi-)sphere, with lower granularity but with high volume detectors, rather long( at least 15 cm), could be made from conventional crystals (BaF2 or CsI), or using existing detectors (Chateau de Crystal or HECTOR). The outer-sphere will measure high-energy photons or serve as an active shield for the inner one.
